A GRATEFUL HEART

 

January 30th

 

“A Grateful Heart”

 

Oh Lord

You who

Have given us

So much

Give us one thing more

 

The gift

Of a grateful heart

 

In the Bible

Jesus tells the story

Of how

He healed 10 lepers

 

1 came back to thank him

What about us

Are we like the one

Or

Are we like the other 9

 

All we have

In this world

Comes from God

All we are

All we can ever become

Depends on God

 

What about us

Are we unreal

Are we selfish

Are we demanding

Are we proud and arrogant

 

Dear Lord

Please help us

To always be

Like the one leper

Who

Came back and said thank you

 

So finally Lord

We pray

You who have

Given us so much

Give us one thing more

 

The gift

Of A grateful heart
